Prevelance Of Infidelity?
Do you think that it is just a matter of time before your partner cheats on you [be it, being strongly attracted to another person, a sexual affair, or full-blown relationship]?
I may be pessimistic about this, but I feel as though it is almost inevitable that people give in to lust when they become too comfortable in their relationship; and the more I research the more I feel as though it’s almost human nature to stray :s
I have never cheated, and I think it is an awful thing to do. I worry that my partner will cheat on me, although I have no reason to worry [other than what I have read about human behaviour]. The thing that worries me the most About Infidelity is not so much the cheating part, rather the lying associated. The thought of a partner endangering my health [via STIs] and trying to maintain a relationship with me while cheating frightens me. If people are going to cheat, I think the worst thing is not telling the other person!
What do people think?
Wow…i used to think exactly like you. But you know what, if your partner chooses to cheat, there is nothing that anyone can do about it. And to think “will he cheat?” is no way to live your life either. Love is about taking chances and trusting that they won’t stray. Instead of worrying more about something that may or may not happen, try to focus on your relationship now and how happy you are that you found each other.
